As we’ve talked about before, Dave and I spent some time in Thailand this past summer filming for a short film we are making about Breakthrough Thailand. One day while we were spending time with Cori, Jub, and the girls in a rural village, they took us to meet their neighbors who were harvesting rice. Their neighbors were incredibly kind and let Dave and I run around in their rice …
Dave and I had an incredible time in Thailand this summer. We absolutely loved the country, the people, and the food, and we have decided that we need to take another trip to see southern Thailand. One of the things on my list to see in Thailand was a floating market. After doing some research on floating markets, it seemed that the famous market I was picturing from the old …
In May 2013 I had the privilege of working with an up-and-coming coffee company called Redeeming Grounds. RG’s first coffee project is based in Colombia where farmers in a guerrilla zone cut down their coca (cocaine) fields and began growing coffee. This promo shares part of their story.

It seems that with the start of September, everyone is getting back in the swing of things after a relaxing summer. This month was full of all kinds of events and fundraisers, so I thought I’d share some photos from a few of those events with you. The first event is Charity in Chocolate for the Heart of America Foundation. This event involves chefs from all over the DC area dressing models in …
This past spring I met up with Chelsea and Hunter by the National Mall for a sunrise engagement shoot with the famous DC cherry blossoms. It was the first day of peak bloom, so don’t let these photos fool you, it was insanely crowded around the cherry trees. We got creative with positioning and framing in order to take photos without tourists and landscape photographers in every shot, and we …
A friend of mine is starting a blog about cooking and I can’t wait to share it with you when it comes out! We decided to try a few different methods of photographing food as a bit of a trial run for her blog and had a lot of fun doing it. I am already dreaming about what I can convince her to cook me next. mmmm. Here is …
Dave and I spent a couple of weeks in Thailand this summer shooting a short film for aoneeight about The Well and Breakthrough. We can’t wait to show you the film, but while we are in the editing phase, I thought you might enjoy a few behind the scenes photos. Everyone at The Well and Breakthrough went out of their way to make sure we felt welcome and we couldn’t have had …
I am sad summer is coming to an end, but my spirit feels full when I reflect on the great photography projects I was able to be part of over the past few months. You may remember my post about Dave and I contributing for Bittersweet’s spring issue, well I was honored to be asked again by the wonderful Bittersweet Zine team to be a contributor for their summer issue. The …
I wrote earlier this week about the great experience I had shooting the Kicheko Summer | Fall Look Book back in June. It was absolute joy to collaborate with such creative and talented women, and though I am thrilled with the end result, I am a little sad to see this project come to an end. After our early sun rise shoot, our wonderful makeup artist, Lacey, helped transform our …
Earlier this summer I had the privilege of shooting for Kicheko‘s first look book. A few weeks prior to the shoot, Sarah and I toured the grounds where we would be shooting. The moment I stepped on location and walked through the ruins of an old seminary, I knew that this shoot would be nothing short of magical. What a joy it was to work with such creative minds and …
